In this episode of The History Stacks, we hear from Carol Schultz Vento, political science professor, attorney, and chronicler of the life of a father whose real-life exploits were immortalized in film.
Vento is the daughter of World War II veteran Arthur ”Dutch” Schultz, a member of the 82nd Airborne Division and a paratrooper whose experience in the D-Day invasion was portrayed in the film The Longest Day. In her Sunbury Press releases The Hidden Legacy of World War II (now in its 2nd edition), and Twisted Strands: Family Secrets and Intergenerational Trauma, Vento discusses Schultz's experiences in Europe, his postwar activity in counter-terrorism, but also his Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
Advised to write about ”the impact of my war on you,” Vento discusses her father's struggles with alcoholism and PTSD, and his redemptive work to help others who suffered.
A native of Philadelphia, Carol Schultz Vento earned her undergraduate degree and doctorate from Temple University and her law degree from Rutgers University School of Law. She lives in Palmyra, New Jersey. You can find out more at her website.
